about

Originally released as a 7" vinyl record and comic book set in 1993, ZENI GEVA's storied SKiN GRAFT single is now available digitally for the first time - and newly remixed and remastered by KK Null!!! - Includes an expanded, illustrated 20-page PDF booklet that reproduces the original comic book set packaging, plus newly added band photos and bonus features. NOTE: The comic reads book from right to left, just like traditional Japanese manga.

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
K.K. Null's monstrous trio of terror take man's relationship with four wheels to a whole new level! Japan's heaviest heavys turn all amplifier knobs to "pulverize" for the A-Side and then pull the most shocking rabbit out of their hat yet for the flip!

"K.K. Null is a living legend and Zeni Geva is Null’s answer to grindcore and the eternally heavy. Although a pessimistic, intensely dark mood pervades just about all of the band's music, they balance it with super-rock along the lines of mid-70s King Crimson and a love of extremities. The music isn’t less complex than like-minded American bands like Don Caballero or Boud Deun, but it’s infinitely more monstrous - mostly due to Null’s overdrive guitar and Steve Albini’s ever-raucous mix." - Pitchfork

"Autofuck” is typical Zeni Geva: heavy, grinding, low-registed guitars; pounding drums and K.K. Null screaming in an angry, gravelly voice. Very satisfying. "When I was on Horseback" is a traditional British tune that Zeni Geva rearranges. About 4/5 of the way into the song, the band breaks from the ballad’s cycle and into a crushing, searching pounding on guitars and drums. The comics that come with this single are just as disturbing as ZG’s music. Overall, a package very worth having." - Indie List Digest

PDF booklet includes cover art and comics by SKiN GRAFT's Mark Fischer, back cover and comics by Rob Syers, plus a double page spread by Dazzling Killmen artist Paul Nitsche, artwork from Harvey Stafford and Dan Grzeca - and additional bonus features! Recorded by Steve Albini in Chicago.

FUN FACT(S):
+ "When I Was On Horseback" had been previously performed by Null's old outfit YBO2!
+ Zeni Geva met the the Skin Graft crew when Dazzling Killmen played a walloping gig with ZG in Madison, Wisconsin. Null later inquired about releasing Dazzling Killmen material on his label Nux Organization, but since all of the bands material was spoken for, arrangements were made for ZG to record a single for SKiN GRAFT!
+ SKiN Graft Editor-In -Chief Mark Fischer painted the cover for Zeni Geva's Alternative Tentacles LP "Desire For Agony". The artwork ties into the cover and comic found in SKiN Graft's "Autofuck".
+ The single's songs were recorded in Chicago during the "Desire For Agony" sessions.
